Fairies and fae and the like
Hey flist,
Anyone here know what they're talking about WRT fairies/the fae/etc? I am looking for some good reference books (or websites, that works too) that can give me more than a bare-bones overview of the various different types of small folk out there. The whole seelie/unseelie thing, everything from brownies to the hierarchies in the courts. All that stuff that I sort of know about but only enough to get myself into trouble.
Help?

For art with lore, anything by Brian Froud. Faeries is a winner, and Good Faeries, Bad Faeries is a personal favorite.
This is a book of essays with a wide overview.
As far as websites go, your best bet is to pick the creature you're looking for and search for that.
